The post said that in 1672, a mob of angry Dutch killed and ate their prime minister. Crazy how it sounds, it’s true and this PM was called Johan de Witt.
In that year the Dutch republic was at war with England and France. The people felt that the prime minister had massively failed them.
They decided to depose him in favor of another leader. After eventually killing him alongside his brother, the angry mob ate some of their body parts.
With the ongoing lockdown, most people are all expectant after government through the PM Robinah Nabbanja promised them Ugx 100,000.
This was however promised to the vulnerable groups that government went ahead to identify.
These people however feel the bureaucratic tendencies of government are prolonging the process and they can’t wait any longer.
When they saw this post, most of them reacted to it with a great sense of humor.
“U may think it’s a joke yet in actual sense your threatening someone’s life, also encouraging Uganda’s assassin’s.” A displeased social media said.
“Who can risk eating Nabbanja, Oyo talabikka nakuwooma.” Another said.
“They might have been just hungry because if it’s not hunger, how can you eat someone because you’re angry.” Another said.
It’s however expected that government will avail the promised COVID-19 relief package to the beneficiaries this week.

![[dropcap]A[/dropcap] section of women in Bugongo parish and Nawangaiza parish in Nawandala Sub County, Iganga District have decried the near-impossible terms set for them to access GROW funds. They have now petitioned their woman member of parliament for Iganga Hon. Kauma Sauda Alibaawo to ask the government for revised terms and conditions. This is to enable them to benefit from the program. The disgruntled women accuse the implementers of the program of charging the money. They are also asking for their land titles and land agreements. They said that such properties are governed by their husbands. These, therefore want the government through their woman MP to intervene and revise the requirements for one to benefit. The women were on Wednesday at Namabwere primary school in Nawandala Sub County. They had gathered in their respective groups to receive over 300 chickens from Hon Alibaawo in her campaign to improve the livelihood of women in Iganga district. Each group was given 50 chicken as start-up capital in their journey to prosperity. Read what some leaders said; Ms Naigambi Lydia from Nawandala Trading Centre says, “They solicited money from us through opening bank accounts and depositing Shs80,000. They also asked for land titles and land agreements from us yet we don’t have such things. I was informed that I needed to have a business with a capital of Shs4m yet my capital was very small.” The chairperson Kisoboka Saving Group in Nawandala Ms. Nakagolo Faith said they were not able to join the program. This is given the many conditions attached. She also asked their woman MP to raise their concerns to the relevant offices. The MP condemned the mode of implementation of the program. She cited that it has turned to benefit the well-off class of women other than the intended group. She further asked the government to intervene saying the current strings attached to the programme are very tight to accommodate a common woman. GROW project is a Government of Uganda initiative that arose out of the need to respond to the needs of women entrepreneurs. This is especially those who want to grow their businesses, sustain their self-employment and create more jobs.
